awesome.. was finding this after i got my tmo g2.. currently in usa still tho. loving my device..

im newbie either.. hopefully i got it correct..

rooting is gaining full user access into the system. well, u will know this well enough if u r a unix/linux user. for example, rooting can turn security off, allow flashing of 3rd party rom (unofficial rom other than htc) bcaz no security mechanism to check on the rom's checksum.

besides, by gaining to root access, u able to use some apps, such as take screenshot (using shootme), or over / underclock your cpu. u can even change kernel to change more flexible overclock range.

corerct if im wrong alright? im new..

im sorry for 1 new post. just wanted to ask u guys that.. wat rom r u guys using now?

i found there is currently too few rom in development for g2.

1)virtuous
2)CM7 nightly build (what pocketnow editorial using ATM)
3)3 teamvillian rom (supervillain, vanilla villain, and GingerVillain 1.5 )
4)modaco sense rom <- i always cant boot once flash this rom. twice for me.

im using virtuous ATM. cant really live without sense.. lol

any better suggestion for me to test? is gingervillain + launcherpro better ?

below is my shots..

i cant make it without touching the screen to highlight anything i wan. even with touch the Capacitive touch screen is badly performed. comparing to nail sensitive resistive touch and fingernail touch. arghh, bad. im still learning to use my thumb properly.

desire z do have LED indicator. my trackpad will blink as well whenever there is notification. so its fine for me.

battery life in BB always pwn thanks to their unique BIS. i couldnt comment much on battery life, data is expensive in where im now. but my wifi is 24/7 on, with coverage throughout my campus, my G2 can hop point to point without DC. i can have my battery life from 8am to 12am.

downside of BB is lacks of application to enhance the system, plus the BIS is so expensive. major people will rather sacrifice all that on BB and get android anyway. but if your email is as important as ur business, then BB is the way i would say.

haha.. i posted my G2 on 3rd page lerh..

hey, im in Midwest now too..
Columbia, Missouri to be exact..

BTW, im on CM7 RC1 now.. stable enough for me. anyway, rom without sense, do u guys find problem about contact (integration with fb,skype,whatsapp), camera (its bad when advanced settings like iso n stuff cant be adjusted), dialer (without T9 and call history on the same screen)?

I just found out what's wrong with my contact integration. Apparently vanilla dumb enough only able to integrate when your contact email is the same email my friend's facebook is, then I can link them. Otherwise, I just don't have that function to join. Not like sense that can manually link contact.

I tried dialer one, somehow a bit laggy.. argh, screw it. Shall see how can I cope while time fly..

im using my tmobile g2 in usa. its locked when i got it. i unlocked it myself. and put in my DiGi simcard, it works in roaming mode tho.

and once its unlocked or s-off, its safe and permanent unless u unroot your phone. altho u need to update yourself with xda-developers, whereas there is time HTC will do some trick to the latest rom and automatically unroot your phone or somehow turn to s-off. not sure this affect lock/unlock status.

anyway, Virtuous v1.0 is out. im downloading it now.. i still prefer sense rom.. lol

What homescreen u using? Sense home screen doesn't rotate by g sensor.

Well, maybe 1.34 do rotate. I tried 1.7x and 1.8x doesn't.

I havnt try any 1.34 rom b4. Anyway, its stated in this thread before that sense homescreen doesn't rotate by sensor. Only physical keyboard.

okay.. stupid enuf!

i flashed my DZ to virtouos v1.0 today.. and the sense interface rotated by gsensor..
damn it!

previous v0.90 and v0.95 wasnt enabled tho..anyway, i disabled auto rotation most of the time.. otherwise, using phone while on bed is so killing fun..

cant find ur radio here??

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799208

monash university sunway campus do have the same problem with wifi too. it cant even download any apps. reported to ITS, but they cant do shit..

over xda, there is CM7 RC2. then teamVillian announced gingersense, android 2.3 with htc sense, there are some bugs but im pretty sure they could quickly iron it out.

interesting day.

LOL

HSDPA = 3.5G > 3G > EDGE 2.75G > GPRS 2.5G > GSM 2G

too bad lorh. nothing is perfect on both end. if its good, then nikon / canon chap lap d.

anyway, i upgraded the radio. doesnt seem any significant difference yet. hopefully battery life could be improve.

Sorry. My bad.
anyway, this got nothing to do with android or so whatever. Its advertised badly by all our Malaysian mobile broadband company.

Normal phone FTW! No confusion caused or weird bug either..

Probably your phone support 3g but not supprt hsdpa lor.
Hehe, not as tho u use it also right?

Btw, after I upgraded radio, got a bit improvement on signal strength. But overnight with wifi on, my battery drop to 73 from 100. I never leave overnight before. Not sure was it right.

And I'm cheap bastards in usa, I bought my g2 at usd 290 and I'm proud of it. Lol

its something very normal when u overclock your device.

its pretty bad in 1113mhz settings, its worse when running 1.5ghz.

jz press the power button a few more times, few 1-2 seconds between each press. eventually your screen will on

hey guys.. is any major difference between wifi connected and 3g/hsdpa connected?

from my past experience, my phone only able to last me 6 hrs thanks to my usage. current g2 on wifi connected able to last me somewhere 10hrs. was wondering whether 3g/hsdpa connected will consume more battery?

if yes, then i might grab a additional battery b4 i back to msia. msia wifi is horrible for me, i just rather stay connected with hsdpa.
